Tried and Failed Songtext
von PET NEEDS

If I duck out of socials but still take photos
Do the pictures sit on my phone feeling lonely?
If I build a soapbox out of recycled quotes
Can we stand upon it, shouting into our echo chamber?

I don′t know where we're going
Each new song starts with the first word of the verse
Then runs into the distance

Fire away ′cause I can't feel nothing at all today
I wish that I could change things
But I've tried to fail again
I′ve tried to fail

If I duck out of vocals and just write prose
Will I be more comfortable with the way that I′m aging?
If we build our hopes up then this implodes
Will you still be proud of the band that we built up together?

There is no way of knowing
If each new song starts with the first word of the verse
What's waiting in the distance


Fire away ′cause I can't feel nothing at all today
I wish that I could change things
But I′ve tried to fail again
I've tried to fail to document this night
Do we do it for the love or for the likes?
I′ve tried to fail again
I've tried to fail

Emily told me that I should listen to my body
That I should get some rest
But why should I try
When the world outside is killing me anyway

Emily told me that I should listen to my body
And that she knows what's best
But why should I try
When the world outside is killing us all

Why should I try?
Why should I try?

Why should I try?

Fire away ′cause I can′t feel nothing at all today
I wish that I could change things
But I've tried to fail again
I′ve tried to fail to document this night
Do we do it for the love or for the likes?
I've tried to fail again
I′ve tried to fail
